Abstract Scope |
Laser-induced particle impact testing (LIPIT) is a tabletop, high-throughput technique for the study of materials’ behavior upon deformation at highest strain rates. The first decade of high-velocity microparticle impact research was characterized by the use of spherical impactors. However, future avenues for the field are certainly to be found with alternative impactor shapes that can unlock alternative loading states. As a step towards high-fidelity control of impactor shapes, this talk will introduce the use of microfabricated projectiles for LIPIT. We will review experimental challenges in both fabrication and use of microscale metal disks for LIPIT and outline future opportunities in projectile engineering. |
